Data Scientist - Product Analytics

About the company:

Two developers, a designer and a support lead make up most of the company, so everyone touches the product. We are a small, self-funded team building a booking app for independent salons and tattoo studios. Founded in 2022, we now have 17 employees. On-call rotates weekly and pays a flat stipend whether or not the pager goes off.

JM Apps needs someone comfortable with both statistics and production code. Our headquarters is in Houston, and about a third of the team works remotely from other countries. This is a full-time remote role. We use an employer of record in India, so you get a proper employment contract, not a freelance agreement. You will need at least 4 hours of overlap with US Central time. Reliable internet and a power backup are a must.

Key responsibilities:

• Review peers' analyses for statistical correctness.
• Segment customers and build churn and lifetime value models.
• Pull and shape data with SQL from Snowflake, BigQuery or Databricks.
• Design and analyse A/B tests, including power calculations and guardrail metrics.
• Work with ML engineers to move models into production and monitor drift.

What we're looking for:

• Comfort with Jupyter, VS Code or Databricks notebooks.
• Data visualization in matplotlib, seaborn, Plotly or a BI tool.
• MS or PhD in statistics, economics, computer science, physics or another quantitative field, or a BS plus equivalent experience.
• Strong Python (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn) and SQL.
• Familiarity with Git and working in shared codebases.

What you get:

• 20 days paid time off.
• Annual team retreat.
• Health insurance through our employer-of-record partner.
• Company laptop.
• Performance bonus.

Shortlisted candidates will hear from us within two weeks.
